Hello,
Have a new XXL 540 TM which is my first gps.
Have several questions after playing with the unit, and also
reading the big pdf manual that I downloaded.
Still confused over a few things, but will blame it on
my old Sr. Citizen status now, which I've found is a truly great excuse for just about everything. So, please put up with a few dumb questions.
Unit seems to work fine, but the updating has me going around in circles.
Regarding the lifetime Maps that apparently the unit comes with:
a. Does the unit, automatically, update to the latest every time you connect to your PC, or do you have to do it thru the TomTom Home site and a logging in ?
b. Can I update as often as I like, or am I limited to 4/year like those who pay additionally to update are ?
Have tried the updatting a lot; could I have used up the 4 already, if that is actually a limit for me even though "Lifetime Maps" ?
c. On their site, is there a way to see a version number for the latest versions of everything ?
I found a screen on my unit that says I have:
"IQ Routes Edition
Device AKTXU-A2D4W
APP 9.061.576030.2 OS 567329
Map: USA_Canada_and Mexico_P
V 845.2670 "
I guess the APP No. and the last line V number are most important.
Do I have the latest on everything ?
Thank you very much,
Bob
